23 Then he told Naphtali:"Naphtali—you are full of favor,overflowing with the Lord’s blessing—go possess the west and the south!"
24 Finally, he told Asher:"Asher is the most blessed of sons.I pray that he’s his brothers’ favorite—one who dips his foot in fine oil.
25 I pray that your dead bolts are iron and copper,and that your strength lasts all your days."
26 Jeshurun! No one compares to God!He rides through heaven to help you,rides majestically through the clouds.
27 The most ancient God is a place of safety;the eternal arms are a support.He drove out the enemy before you.He commanded: "Destroy them!"
28 So Israel now lives in safety—Jacob’s residence is secure—in a land full of grain and wine,where the heavens drip dew.
29 Happy are you, Israel! Who is like you?You are a people saved by the Lord!He’s the shield that helps you,your majestic sword!Your enemies will come crawling on their knees to you,but you will stomp on their backs!
